Sewell Wallis are proud to be partnering with a long-established, privately owned property group to identify an exceptional Group Finance Director to join the business at an important stage of its evolution. The Group has a diverse portfolio spanning commercial property investment, strategic asset management, hotels, retail, industrial property, development and regeneration opportunities, with its principal assets located across the Midlands. This is not a conventional Finance Director appointment. This Chesterfield business is entering a period of transition and is looking for a commercially minded finance leader who can go beyond traditional financial stewardship. The successful individual will take the time to understand the business, challenge established thinking where appropriate, and help shape the financial, organisational and governance framework required to support its next phase of growth. What will you be doing? Reporting into the ownership, you will take broad responsibility for the Group's finance function, combining hands-on financial leadership with strategic commercial input. Key areas of responsibility will include: Overall leadership of the Group's finance function and financial reporting. Preparation and oversight of monthly, quarterly and annual management accounts across a diverse portfolio of property and operating businesses. Statutory accounts and year-end reporting. Preparation and oversight of tax returns, tax computations and associated compliance. Cash flow management, forecasting and financial planning. Development and improvement of financial controls, processes and reporting structures. Management of the Group's banking relationships, including day-to-day banking requirements and lender relationships. Oversight of Companies House compliance, confirmation statements, statutory books and company secretarial matters. Oversight of property-related financial matters, including service charges, distributions and operational expenditure. Quarterly management meetings relating to the Group's hotel operations. Oversight of the Group's insurance arrangements, including general, medical and life insurance. P11D and associated employee-related financial compliance.

What skills do we need? We are particularly interested in individuals who can demonstrate: Significant senior-level finance experience, ideally within property, real estate, investment, development, hospitality or another asset-backed environment. Strong technical accounting and statutory reporting capability. Commercial acumen and the confidence to operate close to ownership. Experience overseeing multiple entities and complex group structures. Strong understanding of banking, taxation, compliance and financial governance. The ability to build robust processes and controls without creating unnecessary bureaucracy. A willingness to be hands-on when required, while also thinking strategically. The confidence to challenge constructively and bring fresh thinking to an established organisation. Excellent communication skills and the ability to work effectively with both financial and non-financial stakeholders.What's on offer? For the right person, this is an opportunity to do considerably more than manage a finance function. You will have the opportunity to influence the future structure and direction of an established property group, working closely with ownership and playing a central role in strengthening the organisation for its next stage of development. The combination of significant underlying assets, an entrepreneurial ownership structure, a diverse portfolio and a genuine transformation agenda makes this a particularly interesting appointment.Apply below or, for more information, contact Kayley.
